Animal Diversity test

Mitosis

Diploid to Diploid, growth and repair

Meiosis

Diploid to Haploid, reproduction

Both create new cells

Similarities of mitosis and meiosis

Cephalization

The concentration of sense organs and nerve cells at the anterior end

Sponges

Animals with no true tissues

mesoderm

the middle germ layer, develops body cavity and organs

Endoderm

the inner germ layer, forms into the lining of the digestive tract

ectoderm 

The outer germ layer, forms the outermost layer of the organisms

Acoelomates

no true body cavity

coelom

true body cavity lined with mesoderm

pseudocoelom

body cavity with endoderm and mesoderm

cushions the suspended organs, acts as a skeleton, enables internal organs to grow and move independently

three main functions of a body cavity (___,___,___)

morphological

Relating to the form or structure of living things

Sexually

Do animals mostly produce asexually or sexually?

Diploid

Does diploid or haploid stage dominate an animals life cycle

Collagen

What is the most abundant protein found on the external cell membranes of animals

Multicellular

are animals multicellular or unicellular organisms

reduces competition for food and habitat,deters predators

reasons that it may be beneficial for a species survival to have a larval stage (___,___)

Eukarya 

Domain in which animlas are classified

Animalia

Kingdom in which animals are classifed

Heterotrophic - Ingests food and uses enzymes to break it down

mode of nutrition of animals (___-____)

phylogeny

the evolutionary history of lineage

Morphology

the study of the forms of things

metamorphosis

The process of transformation from an immature form to an adult form in two or more distinct stages.

Hox genes

A unique homeobox containing a family of genes that control the expression of many genes and play important roles in the development of animal embryos. 

Larvae

A sexually immature, morphologically distinct form to an adult organism that will eventually go through metamorphosis. 

tissue

Groups of similar cells that act as a functional unit
